Antarctic goblins
« on: March 26, 2011, 11:58:55 pm »
So, in the very first world I genned under 0.31.23, I noticed something a little weird.  There was a goblin fortress in the glacier/arctic-ocean area along the south of the map -- only 3 cells from the edge.

Probably something that could occur all along in DF2010, but I do wonder how they could survive.

Goblins don't need to eat anymore, so they can live there because they don't need to farm.

I like fortresses because they are still underground.

If one of them names their great-sword Frostmourne, I am SO waging a crusade on their asses.

Those are elves... Oh wait, that was Stormbringer. No really, I seriously though that you were talking about Elric's sword there - but then I realized that Frostmourne was just Blizzard's rip-off version of it.

Just like our current adventurers. They are able to survive forever on the suffering, pain and fear of the fools they slaughter.

They must have constructed a giant fell igloo featuring unrelenting bastions of intimidating snowgoblins.

As I gen more worlds, I'm seeing that glacier gobbos are actually quite common.  However, I still have another cool seed to share:

This has an antarctic volcano.  Might be attractive to the sort of player who likes to build forts on the ice.
